Here's a cool idea I came across. This wiki for kids was recently started in the UK but the idea is for kids from all over the world to add information about their schools and their towns. So far, there are no schools in New York who have added information. Maybe we could get the ball rolling!Welcome to WikiVille 21st Century students building a world-story of life in their home towns.
Has your town been WikiVilled yet?
For every place in WikiVille there'll be stories & stuff about
- school life from the day-to-day to hopes & dreams
- home life from jobs & chores to happy places & things that could be better
- about the past as well as the future

Well, this is a perfect example of why you should never miss a tech meeting!! I spent my lunch looking at the site and to be honest, didn't get very far. I registered an account thinking it might help me navigate a little better, but still no luck. I read someone's entry from Georgia and my impression is that this is probably not for the youngest kids. I thought we might do it as a class. I did notice they are looking for podcasts though so maybe we have some teachers who could post about our school and town with a podcast. Let me know if any of you get involved with this site so I can learn more!
